This is one of the craziest things that I found in an old Northern California former Ford dealership. They were cleaning out a building to get it ready for sale and it turned out that they sold Fords from the 1920s until the 1960s. This was in a back room on the shelf where it probably sat for 90 years. I believe the date on the box is 12/31/1934. It says the declared value on the original label is $400, which I thought was not much less than what a whole car sold for back then.

It even has the original 15 cents worth of stamps on the box. Box flaps are separated from the box.

I do not know a ton about it but I must think that this is probably the only one in existence in the box. You’ll see the Ford mailing labels that helps provide a little bit of extra information. Looks like it came from Richmond California. This will be packed extremely well and will come in a much larger box to protect it.
